Book club kits

Each bag contains 8-10 copies of a single title, a set of discussion questions, and tips for running a successful book club.

From the list of kits, click on the "Reserve Kit" button to request it. Ask Us for help reserving a kit or if you have questions about the service.

You will be notified by phone or email when your kit is available to be picked up at the Hennepin County Library location of your choice. We cannot change the pick up date. Kits must be returned to any Hennepin County Library location during open hours since they can't be returned in a book drop.

A kit is checked out to one book club member who is responsible for all of the materials. The fine for overdue kits is 30 cents a day, and fees for missing books will be charged to the book club member who checked out the kit.

The group may keep the kit for up to six weeks. Book club kits may not be renewed. A book club member can have up to six kits reserved at one time.

Kits are generally for adults and include fiction, nonfiction and large print titles. Some kits with teen titles are available for adult and teen readers. The list includes links to online copies of the discussion questions and information about the author.

Select the date when you'd like to pick up a kit and click on the "Submit" button to get a list of available titles. Remember to check your chosen location's open days and hours when you pick your date.
